Bio sent from Gravestone Recorder (#46960440); “WILLIAM, born Feb. 1, 1736–7. He married, Dec. 11, 1763, Anne Pride, who died March 4, 1776. He married for his second wife, Feb. 11, 1777, Lois Durkee ; and for his third wife, April 11, 1791, Elizabeth Waterman. He lived in Lebanon, Conn., for a few years, and thence went into Vermont, in which state he died, at Middlebury, July 4, 1816. He was at the battle of Bunker Hill, and was sent to Skeensboro to aid in building Arnold’s fleet. He afterwards repaired to the frontier in New Hampshire, where he served as a minute man through the war. It was a great joy to him to recount in his old age the story of his exposures and hardships, and of his encounters with wild beasts and savages in that cold and snowy region.”
